Hi,

I recently had the roof of my Oxford White 2015 Mustang wrapped with Avery Dennison Gloss Black Metallic.

While I'm happy with the installation, the vinyl has a fine orange peel muting the gloss quite a bit.

This car is not a daily driver, so I currently have Reload as sealant and top with the ECH2O, 1:15 concentration with just a "splash" of reload added.

I'm looking for advice or recommendations on what to top the vinyl with to improve the gloss. I've tried the Reload and ECH2O, but it didn't seem to add much at all to the gloss. Would a glaze be better? What about an actual coating over the vinyl?

I know nothing will completely remove the orange peel, just looking for advice to enhance the gloss as much as possible.

Thanks!

opticoat, I've used on top of clear bra, worked well, wouldn't see why it couldn't help a wrap

I use the following non-"petroleum-based"
products on gloss vinyl wraps:

•XPEL Flawless Finish PPF Sealant

• Four Star Ultimate Spray Wax Plus (http://www.autogeek.net/four-star-ultimate-spray-wax-plus.html)

•Turtle Wax Ice Synthetic Spray Detailer

Would the Opti Gloss work as well? The Opti Coat is professional only.

What about the CQQuartz?
